Modular Synthesis of Dihydropyranones through Cyclization and Organometallic Functionalization

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 28, Issue 48, December 22, 2025.
A scalable method for synthesizing 3‐methoxy‐4,5‐dihydropyran‐2‐ones (MeO‐DHP‐2‐ones) via base‐promoted cyclization of hydroxy alkynes is presented. Mechanistic and computational studies guided the transformation into 4,5‐dihydropyran‐4‐ones (DHP‐4‐ones), enabling access to spiroacetal precursors relevant to natural product synthesis.
